Cutler-Sametz Choral Arts Scholarships

The Cutler-Sametz Choral Arts Scholarships recognize students with exceptional talent and provide the opportunity to perform with the best in the University Choir. This scholarship is renewable for up to eight consecutive semesters. Music lessons are also required and will be offered as part of the scholarship. Talented incoming singers to Lehigh of any major are eligible to apply for the Cutler-Sametz Choral Arts Scholarship program, which totals $10,000-$20,000 over four years and includes voice lessons. This four-year scholarship is named in honor of Robert B. Cutler, director of the Lehigh Glee Club from 1954-1979, and Steven P. Sametz, Director of Lehigh Choral Arts from 1979 to 2024. This is a merit-based scholarship, including a stipend and voice lessons. Choral Arts Scholars sing in University Choir during their time at Lehigh. Choral Arts Scholars also participate in the Glee Club, Dolce, or the Choral Union for at least four semesters. These scholarships are only offered to students applying to Lehigh for admission.
